WASHINGTOND.C, D.C. February 5, 2026 – The White House announced Thursday that U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has successfully removed Abdiaziz Ahmed, an undocumented immigrant from Somalia convicted of sexual assault, from communities in Minnesota.
In an official post shared from the @WhiteHouse account, the administration highlighted the enforcement action, stating: “🚨Meet Abdiaziz Ahmed, an illegal alien from Somalia, who is convicted of sexual assault. Thanks to ICE, this predator is off Minnesota’s streets.”
The announcement included a photograph and received significant engagement on the platform, with thousands of views, likes, and reposts within hours of posting. Many responses praised ICE’s efforts and emphasized themes of border security and public safety under the current administration.
The removal aligns with ongoing immigration enforcement priorities focusing on individuals with criminal convictions. ICE has not released additional details regarding the specific timeline of Ahmed’s arrest, conviction, or deportation proceedings in the public statement.
This case comes amid broader discussions on immigration policy, with supporters crediting aggressive enforcement for enhancing community safety, while critics often question the framing and selection of individual cases in official communications.
Official deportation statistics and further case information are typically available through ICE’s public reporting channels. The White House encouraged citizens to stay informed via official alerts by texting “USA” to 45470.
